Region

La Roccaia is located near the historic Tuscan hill town of San Gimignano.

The region was settled by ancient Etruscans who created its first major civilization and a transportation infrastructure that spread its agriculture, mining, and vibrant art throughout the continent.

It is the birthplace of the Italian Renaissance, and of historic figures such as Dante, Botticelli, Michelangelo, Machiavelli, da Vinci, Galileo, Puccini, and many others.

Today, Tuscany is home to six localities designated as World Heritage Sites: the historic centers of Florence, Siena, San Gimignano, Pisa and Pienza, and the Val d'Orcia. Also renowned for its cuisine and wine, it is one of the world's most popular travel destinations.
